How Many Episodes Will Season 1 of Combatants Will be Dispatched Have?


Currently streaming on Funimation, Combatants Will Be Dispatched is a hilarious series from the creator of other fantasy isekai series Konosuba and Kemono Michi. With that kind of pedigree behind it, it's easy to see why fans have already become so taken with it.

Originally a light novel series written by Natsume Akatsuki and illustrated by Kakao Lanthanum, the anime adaptation was first announced over a year ago in March 2020. J.C. Staff is animating this one with Hiroaki Akagi serving as the director working off scripts written by Yukie Sugawara. They are working off character designs by Sota Suwa and background music composed by Masato Koda.

In this series, the main characters are Combat Agent 6 and a combat android named Alice, who works for the evil Kisaragi Corporation. The corporation has nearly taken over Earth and decides to extend its reach into outer space by sending the two characters to a fantasy world via teleporter. Unfortunately for them, shortly after they arrive they are drafted into a kingdom's army and must now balance their Earth work with their soldier work.

Combatants Will Be Dispatched is already winning over fans left and right with its sharp comedy and fun visuals. Most fans have sorted out which series they'll be giving a chance to this season already, but with the mid-season mark coming up, that's another chance to catch the eye of viewers who might have dropped some series around the first climax mark. Will they be able to capitalize?

After that, all that's left is to give fans a satisfying ending, or at least the promise that more is coming down the line failing the former. It's difficult to say if Combatants Will Be Dispatched will be able to carry enough steam power to get them through all the way to the summer. I mean, there's no real reason to believe that they will falter at the halfway mark or beyond, but stranger things have happened in this crazy world.
